From three-time Academy Award winner Oliver Stone comes this inspiring true story about courage, family and a nation's unyielding spirit. Oscar winner Nicolas Cage and Michael Pena (Crash) star as John McLoughlin and Will Jimeno, two NYC Port Authority policeman who were trapped in the rubble of September 11, 2001 during a rescue attempt. As McLoughlin and Jimeno bond together in a fight for survival and bravely struggle to keep hope alive, the events of an unimaginable day unfold through the eyes of the two policemen, their loving wives (Maria Bello and Maggie Gyllenhaal) and survivors and rescuers throughout the city.
